When the laptop comes with a small size ssd, eg 32gb, does it mean that the OS is already or can be installed on the ssd?

QUOTE(nexus2238 @ Aug 23 2013, 01:43 AM) No. OS mostly are NOT installed on the 32G mSATA SSD on factory setting. It is generally used for caching. In this case, what is need to provide ssd for caching?For certain models, you can go into BIOS and turn the caching off and make the small mSATA SSD available for storage. |

QUOTE(nexus2238 @ Aug 23 2013, 02:26 AM) Huh? don't understand. Lol cuz i dont know what caching is, and any benefit of offering ssd for it. Can the ssd be used to install certain softwares so that it runs faster?For those mSATA SSD, you either use it for caching or use it for storage. |
